Ari Fox, LCSW-R

Child, Adolescent and Young Adult Psychotherapist

The world in which we live is an increasingly stressful place. There are many demands on one's time, energy and patience. Challenging dynamics at home, work or school can make one feel irritable, angry or out of control. Do you find that you bottle your anger up and when times are really tough you explode? Or, do you have a hard time containing your anger to the point that you are jeopardizing your relationships or career?
Research suggests that individuals who are quick to anger are more likely to develop heart disease and are five times more likely to have an early heart attack.
Ari Fox provides a safe and non-judgmental setting for you to speak about whatever is on your mind.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Why is it that some people can be rational when faced with adversity and others become completely unglued? Often the anger is justified but when we become irrational and violent we have lost control of our power...not enhanced it. For some people learning how to process anger into rational thought and reasonable action is a difficult prospect. Our job is to learn about our triggers and find healthier ways to respond to adversity. I always remind my patients that we are allowed all of our thoughts no matter how out of control they may sound. What can't be allowed is acting on those thoughts in inappropriate and unhealthy ways. We must somehow find the Pause button.

This one requires careful diagnosis. Too many people have come to me claiming to have problems with anger management when in fact it was someone else who had the problem. Sometimes we need to get angry. Sometimes we just need help with how best to express it. And yes, other times we have the harder task of identifying just why you do get angry so much more than others seem to, more than upon calm reflection you realize is warranted. So this kind of work can be over in a few sessions or it can last months. Depends what we find.

Jacqueline Swensen, PhD, LCSW

Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Clinical Social Worker

If you find yourself having difficulty tolerating your anger or rage or are suffering consequences in your personal or work life as a result of outbursts, thinking it will get better on its own will leave you with more problems. Your anger is there for a reason or many. Psychotherapy with me can help you understand yourself in new ways so that you can deal with your anger in healthier ways and work on solutions.

Kristin Schaefer Schiumo, Ph.D.

Licensed Psychologist

Anger is a completely normal, often healthy, emotion. But when it gets out of control and turns destructive, it can lead to problems at work, in your personal relationships, and in the quality of your overall life. You cannot avoid all the situations or people that anger you, nor can you change them, but you can learn to control your reactions to them. We will work to reduce the intensity of your emotions and the physiological arousal that anger causes you, through the use of strategies such as cognitive restructuring, relaxation, problem solving, improved communication, humor, and changing your environment.

Hal Brickman, LCSW, RCSW, CSW, MSW, CHT

New York State Licensed Clinical Social Worker

My main approach is to help my client identify situations (contexts), people, behaviors (his and others) that seem to usher in varying degrees of anger. My main message is that anger is an appropriate feeling to loss and frustration, but it is his learning to appropriately express anger in an adaptive manner that leads to emotional growth and the mollification of the anger itself.

Lauren Levy, LCSW

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

People often come into my office and say that they have no control over their anger, that they just "lost it." I work with my clients to help them understand that they do have control over their anger. I teach them anger management strategies to increase awareness of their feeling states on a regular basis so that they can recognize and address the warning signs before letting the anger build. There are several techniques that clients can use when they recognize the warning signs. My clients and I fill their "toolbox" with as many strategies as possible to calm themselves down and think rationally.
